The Town of
Wheatfield's all-volunteer Comprehensive Planning Implementation
Task Force, with the cooperation of the Town Planning Board, has
completed a two-year study to update the Town of Wheatfield Master
Plan, according to Richard W. Muscatello, task force facilitator.

Prior to soliciting
the approval of the Town Board, it was unanimously agreed to present
the contents of the plan to the residents of the town, via public
comment opportunity, soliciting their concerns and/or
recommendations. Should the necessity arise the plan can be amended
prior to submission to the Town Board. The master plan updating
implements new laws and ordinances, as well as creating town
projects, and activities such as the creation of a Farmers' Market.

The public input
hearing will take place 6:30 to 8:15 p.m. Thursday, June 14, at the
Wheatfield Community Center.

All residents are
encouraged to attend and participate in the discussions, Muscatello
said. Focus groups supporting the task force will be present to
address specific concerns or comments from residents with particular
needs.
